A Pack of Baby Bears =)

Went to the mart near Ixora and saw packs of gummy bears at the counter. And I love gummy bears. They are so cute.!! Its amazing how small things like this brightens up my day.

my gummy bears =)


A strange and funny thing happened today. I went to the balcony, dragged the chair along 'cause I was calling a friend of mine. Then suddenly, I heard someone calling out my name a few times, and it was coming from the boys' hostel which is where my unit faces. And that voice sounded so familiar. Instead of scanning all the balconies that my unit is facing, I ran back into the house and sat on the couch instead XD


Much later after that, I went back to the balcony as I was on another phone call with my friend (yes, again). This time, no one shouted my name. Thank God. My time at the balcony is not something you wanna mess with. Ahahaha =D


I realized something ~ I am a rule breaker. I have that "inner rebellion" or that stubborn trait in me that makes me stand by what I say and what I believe in. And of course, sometimes society wouldn't just agree in everything that you stand firm on. Do I enjoy it exactly.? Maybe yes, maybe no. I go against rules not for the sake of going against it, to cause trouble or just because. I go against rules because I don't think that particular rule is necessary and it's completely irrelevant. I still think I am quite okay to work with, still flexible and am open to opinions and correction =P *self-praising much.?*


I'm still very unenthusiastic. Everything has been so flat and flat la. So what.? There is still excitement in all these flat-ness. Where is my excitement.!??! Other than that, 4 more days and I will be home.!!! Can't wait to get out and be home.


4 More Days...
Home...
wooOOttsss.!!!

I'm On The Right Track.

The number of phone calls I made to the people back home kind of escalated last weekend. My weekend technically start on Fridays as I don't have any class on that day. This ultimate loneliness hit it's ultimate worse on Friday itself. So, that spurred all the phone calls I made. At those moments also, though I have my assignments to keep me busy, I really couldn't wait for the midterm break to come. I just can't wait to go back and see all the faces that I know and love and get crazy with them. I was also really unenthusiastic about the stuff that is going on here ~ if there is even anything. This is unlikely 'cause I'm the kind that gets excited easily. Oh wells...

To those who got the calls, you know who you are. Just wanna say a big thank you for picking up my calls and listening to me rant the same thing over and over again. Hopefully, my parents would also be understanding when they see the phone bill. *please don't kill me*

Thankfully on Sunday, God granted me a good day. Woke up a little late but still managed to get ready for church. Then, I didn't have to walk to the bus stop alone, someone was there to accompany me =) The yellow school bus came and off all of us headed to CCC. After church, had McD for lunch *oh happiness*. It was this lunch that really made me feel not-so-lifeless. The combination of the yummy GCB and the conversations and laughters *awesome.!!* I was so happy that when I came back, I buzzed Esther on MSN and told her how happy I am, not even what made me that happy. 

Something that caught my attention ~ Ecclesiastes 5:4 - When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow.

*I know I've been breaking my promises ~ help me keep my promises*


*p.s - post was named after a line in the song I was listening to when I was writing this =)

I'm Not Feeling It...Yet, Maybe

What am I not feeling.?
.
.
.
.
.
.
I remembered my very first time going for one ~ oh man, that was good. It was something I never regret, it is something I still look back to with a smile and ultimately, it brought us all together.

Then I thought history would repeat when I joined my next one ~ Oh, how wrong I was.
Maybe this is a result of having just expectations, don't even mention high expectations.

So yeah, what am I not feeling.? I think that is better left unsaid. Maybe I should be a lil' more patient and give it more time.
But if I can say it once, I can very surely say it again.
I'm not feeling it, I'm not feeling it..


I'M SO NOT FEELING IT.!!!

Hair Flips and Realizations...

I don't know what got into me, or what "provoked" me to do what I did. I just finished preparing for one of my midterm papers and I have some time to spare. I don't have a single clue where did this idea came from (probably my obsession with levitation pictures or anything that appears to float or in air =.=)  but I decided to go to the balcony and take pictures of my myself tossing, flipping and whipping my hair...


I was then further convinced and "encouraged" to go on with my plan as it was only 4.15pm and the sun was still shining brightly ~ natural light.!! It's bright enough and the camera works best with this kind of lighting =P
So no-life right.? Assignments due date's are drawing closer and I still have time for random-ness.

On a more personal note, I just went for my CG's last Bible study. Last yo.!!! I was given the chance to lead worship for the very first time. First timer's fear and nervous-ness coupled with timing issues ~ it's all well. Very thankful that God made me take that leap of faith. 

Okay, back to "final CG Bible study". It then occurred to me that the semester is coming to an end soon with Finals and a few more assignments being in the way. Can't believe I would have spent one semester here in Malacca, transitioned from being the kid who goes back every weekend to only going back twice so far this semester. Seeing familiar Cyber faces for lunch, dinner, supper almost all the days I'm in campus to seeing and mingling with new faces. I'm not complaining but at the same time, "start all over again" isn't exactly a piece of cake.


Oh wells, that's me now :-)

For Your Birthday...

It's the birthday of someone very dear to me, so I decided to dedicate a blog post in honour, in conjuction with yours truly's birthday...


Miss Chia Yen Pui,
HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY.!!!!!! 

hope you are happy to see your name terpampang besar here and also on my Fb XD


hahaha..you remember this? This was like almost a year ago..We decided (more like I forced you to actually) to play with my webcam in McD. You kept saying "yerr, MeiTheng..you're such a poser.."

Thank you for your listening ear, your fun personality and your annoying self all these years. And always helping me settle my online shopping stuff and being my faithful shopping kaki. Thanks a bunch for listening to my ramblings and nonsense. Thanks for your don't-make-sense comments and statements ~ I think my parents won't scold me if I get a red cardigan, cause I think it's quite necessary 


Hope you have a wonderful time turning 19 and ultimately being 19. Take care and may God bless you abundantly :-)

I come back and buy you a meal okay.? Ahahaha...

Familiar Faces

It was the Saturday that I looked forward to, like mad I might add =D


It finally came and now it's history..All in all, I would be the first to say that I had a great day on that day. In fact, a great day could even be an understatement to describe that day ~ It was far beyond great, awesome and whatever words you wanna use to describe it.


I remembered almost two weeks ago, I was sitting in CF and they are doing some announcements. When I saw that one of the announcements on the displayed slide was "Inter-CS Fellowship Day" *fuyoh.!! excited sial.!* *jumps in joy* Ahahahaha =D 
It was that exciting, even if it was still two weeks away and it's still that exciting (for me) to look back on what happened on that far beyond great day. Of course, there was a point where I was unsure of how things will go or will they turn out the way it was planned as I remembered it rained at 8am. But no, the day went on as planned. I got the opportunity to meet many new faces, I was like "wow.! so many.!!". But ultimately, I am most thankful to be able to see my Cyber family and spend a day with them. These are my gor gor and jie jies, you know XD


*picture heavy post alert*


thank you to a newbie. hahaha XD
      
thank you for your time in making this happen. 
All glory to God :-)









RED.!!! 3 red shirts, 1 red pants and a red pillar...



Beef Kut Teh *oh yess.!!!*
ooohh, excited betul budak ni...




I had a close to sleepless night that night - my arms were practically gone, so sore all because of kayaking. Didn't kayak that much also... But thankfully, I still made it to church :-)

The Balcony + A Camera...

The first week of August is about to come to an end, at least for me as I am not having any classes tomorrow. Yay.!!! How awesome it is sometimes to have a 3 day weekend. On Thurdays, I do this thing called "attending CG" - sounds like I am talking to a kid. hahahaha =D  Anyways, we had Bible Study this week and we discussed on "Living Above Average". It was a good study, was able to learn some new things, clarify certain things and also hear the opinions of those who joined. The study kind of got me think if I am just getting through a day or am I enjoying and making full use of it.? After the study, we went over to a friend's house to celebrate the farewell of another friend. 


After the farewell, I came back to my oh-so-comfy room and took a shower and did laundry (water supply is back.!!). After all of that was done, I transferred out all the pictures that I've taken over the weekend and also up till the week so far. Haha..and since I'm in the mood for sharing (what on earth.??)

Pictures of the weekend at home. I LOVE RED. oh I went to the zoo.!


Bible Study - How Can I Live Above Average?



Supplies when at the balcony, camera and book not shown...




And this is what I did when at the balcony with a camera in hand.
Currently attempting to "paint with light" .  XD



Alrighty, that's it for now, and I can't wait for Saturday *jumps in joy*.

Me, the blogger :-P

OMG.!!! I can call myself a blogger now. I finally am the author of some random, close to non-existent blog at some very tiny corner of the World Wide Web now. This is technically my second one as I used to "blog" on Friendster. What on earth.?!?!


Anyhow, I thought and dwell and dwell and dwell and continued dwelling till a few moments ago(and I hate being indecisive) about this for quite sometime and quite a lot, and what I did by creating a blog for myself is really just a spur of the moment. I had to think of this thoroughly as I know how things like these(Fb-ing, Tumblr-ing, Tweet-ing etc) can get addictive and before you know it, it's beyond your control already. Of course, I hope that I will continue to update frequently and also consistently. And like how I've always believed and told people, there's always a first to everything. 


So, if you are an interested reader or just anyone out there who is curious, interested or you just have that stalker trait in you :-P feel free to follow, listening to me talking (or writing) crap..or whatever it is you guys call it as far as Blogger language is concerned...


Good night and have an awesome day dearies :-) Hopefully I will be back soon...
